Events in Basingstoke From 11th May – 17th May 2026

Home · Events in Basingstoke This Week

You can find a range of events in Basingstoke this week, from family activities that encourage creativity to skill-building workshops and hands-on art sessions. There are options for those looking to relax or deepen their wellbeing, and evenings offer live music and community gatherings. This week’s events cover everything from local workshops to performances, with something for each interest.

If you're using Thames Valley Buses, consider heading to Leisure Park, though parking is often limited on weekends. The town’s railway hub status, originally established by the London and South Western Railway, means Basingstoke Railway Station is a reliable access point, though the South West Main Line can get busy. Community events often take place near the town centre, but parking shortages are common during peak times. The Ringway links several venues, and the M3 motorway corridor regularly hosts larger events.

Check the listings below for times and locations.
